St Etienne 3-1 Lille

St Etienne stretched their unbeaten run to nine matches in all competitions with a comfortable 3-1 win over Lille in Ligue 1.
Robert Beric, Arnaud Nordin and Nolan Roux fired the goals as the hosts overwhelmed Lille, who slipped to a fourth consecutive defeat.
Renato Civelli hit back for Lille but the visitors hardly looked likely to mount any serious battle for even a share of the spoils.
Beric's third league goal of the campaign set the home side on their way, with 18-year-old midfielder Nordin claiming the second.
Striker Roux then bagged his first goal of the season in stoppage time, as St Etienne wrapped up their win.
